Is there a problem with numbering theorems in latex?

I have a problem with theorem numbering in LaTeX. I can make it number by subsection, e.g for the first theorem in the second subsection of the first section. But I need it to show me only the numbers of the subsection and the theorem, but not the section number, like this: for the numbering.

Can you make a theorem number by subsection?

I can make it number by subsection, e.g for the first theorem in the second subsection of the first section. But I need it to show me only the numbers of the subsection and the theorem, but not the section number, like this: for the numbering. Putting the following code in the preamble seems to have the desired effect:

Do you have to specify a chapter number for a theorem?

This might be a simple question but it’s weird that I couldn’t find the answer anywhere on the internet. then I get the numbering as Theorem [section.subsection.thm number], so I always need to specify the chapter, but the problem is that the chaptering is likely to change until the final stage.

When to use the numberwithin command in TeX LaTeX?

Note that the numberwithin command can be used on pretty much any environment that has a number (tables, figures, etc). Thanks for contributing an answer to TeX – LaTeX Stack Exchange! Please be sure to answer the question.

Which is the correct number for the first theorem?

So, just as you describe, the first theorem in the second subsection of the first section will be numbered 2.1. Alternatives to \\arabic include: \\Alph – produces capital letters, such as B.1

Is there easy way to numbering theorems in AMS?

There’s no easy way to do this. The AMS Theorem Package only provides a way to control when numbering resets (section, subsection), if it’s tied to other environments (corollary, lemma) and number order (“1.1 Theorem” vs. “Theorem 1.1”). Theorem’s get their numbering from the hesection or hesubsection command.


Is the theorem number the same as the chapter number?

Otherwise, if I were to set as then I only get Theorem [chapter.thm number] so that sectional structure is lost and the numbering becomes very unclear and inefficient. At first, this seems very simple but it’s funny that I could not find the answer.
